I'm running into an issue with I2C where I never break out of this while loop:  while(I2CMasterBusy(m_I2CBus));   I have 16kOhm pullup resistors on both th SDATA and SCLOCK.  They are not connected to a device, but I think it should still work.

I use the following commmands to setup the I2c

//I2C1
SysCtlPeripheralEnable(SYSCTL_PERIPH_I2C1); //(m_Periferal); //SYSCTL_PERIPH_I2C0
SysCtlPeripheralEnable(SYSCTL_PERIPH_GPIOA); //(m_Port); //SYSCTL_PERIPH_GPIOB
GPIOPinConfigure(GPIO_PA6_I2C1SCL);
GPIOPinConfigure(GPIO_PA7_I2C1SDA);
GPIOPinTypeI2C(SYSCTL_PERIPH_GPIOA, GPIO_PIN_6 | GPIO_PIN_7 ); //m_Port, m_ClockPin | m_DataPin); //SYSCTL_PERIPH_GPIOB, GPIO_PIN_2 | GPIO_PIN_3
I2CMasterInitExpClk(I2C1_MASTER_BASE, SysCtlClockGet(), false); //false = 100 Khz, true = 400KHz m_I2CBus
I2CMasterEnable(I2C1_MASTER_BASE); //I2C0_MASTER_BASE

Then I have a send command function that gets called in the Main that should send I2C bytes.

int SendCommand(NanoMotionASICCommands commandCode, short int commandValue)
{
unsigned char buf[2];

unsigned long  m_I2CBus =  I2C1_MASTER_BASE;

if(commandCode < 1)
return -1;

//printf("Writing Command: %d %d\n", commandCode, commandValue);

//Set Address Write
I2CMasterSlaveAddrSet(m_I2CBus, ID_I2C_ADDR, false);

//Send Command Code Byte
I2CMasterDataPut(m_I2CBus, commandCode);
I2CMasterControl(m_I2CBus, I2C_MASTER_CMD_BURST_SEND_START); // I2C_MASTER_CMD_SINGLE_SEND
while(I2CMasterBusy(m_I2CBus));  << Always get stuck here !!!!

//Divide Command Value into 2 bytes. Send in Little Endian (LSB first)
memcpy(buf, &commandValue, 2);

I2CMasterDataPut(m_I2CBus, buf[0]);
I2CMasterControl(m_I2CBus, I2C_MASTER_CMD_BURST_SEND_CONT); //I2C_MASTER_CMD_SINGLE_SEND
while(I2CMasterBusy(m_I2CBus));

//Send Command Value
I2CMasterDataPut(m_I2CBus, buf[1]);
I2CMasterControl(m_I2CBus, I2C_MASTER_CMD_BURST_SEND_FINISH); // I2C_MASTER_CMD_SINGLE_SEND
while(I2CMasterBusy(m_I2CBus));

return 0;
}

Why is this the case?  What would make it return busy always? Any suggestions?
